Two in the Saddle

Rating:
Summary: Steamy and hilarious!
Review: "Two in the Saddle" is the second in the "Three Cowboys and a Baby" series by Thompson. Knowledge of the first book helps but is not required.

In this installment, we meet lighthearted playboy Travis, who seems to be able to get any woman he wants ... except for Gwen, his boss's best friend. Gwen's had it with lighthearted playboy men and wants nothing to do with Travis!

This is a wonderfully funny, engaging read with well-crafted characters and a lot of steamy eroticism. Truly a joy to read. I liked how Travis become something other than what we originally expect, and how we come to know Gwen and her deep insecurities. (And, despite how un-PC this is, I loved the cover! Yum.)

However, I must quibble with two things. First, I hate it when the female characters really don't want anything to do with the guy, yet their bodies "betray them" and they're overcome with lust. I know this was a popular theme 20-30 years ago, but aren't we past that now? Second, the theme holding this series together, baby Elizabeth, is a little tough to swallow.

However, if you can get past these two points, this is a very well-written, funny, engaging read by Thompson. Enjoy!

Summary: Definitely interesting
Review: Hunky cowboy Travis (in the role of best man) tries to pick up bridesmaid Gwen at their mutual close friends wedding. He an extroverted playboy, and she a reserved, domesticated woman with dreams of white gowns , burst into flames with their attraction for each other. The only complications...she refuses him saying she needs commitment, he pleads with her saying he can't commit, and a minor detail...a baby. This is one of the book in the series "Three cowboys and a baby", in which one of three drunk cowboys impregnate a woman, all of them thinking it's themselves, with nobody knowing who the father is till the last book. In this book, Travis is sure it's his, and Gwen too, disapprovingly, thinks it's Travis who's the irresponsible father, putting more distance between them as Gwen worries the mother will appear on the scene and cause problems. Needless to say, at the risk of revealing too much, things work out in the end with Travis letting out his 'big' secret of why his lifestyle is what it is. A nice, interesting story...something different.The only negative aspect is that the characters are somehow lacking in something. But adding the equation of a reluctant girl, a big-muscled hunk who can change diapers, and lots of attraction, it adds up to a good book.

Summary: Great book..continuing a really good series!
Review: This series of books is wonderful! It has passion, romance and mystery. Just who is baby Elizabeth's daddy? In this book we meet another cowboy who thinks he is the father of the baby. Is he? When will Jessica return to tell everyone what's going on? Read it and find out! I look forward to reading the next book in the series, Boone's Bounty. This is a really great book with a lot of passion and sexy scenes! Any Harlequin Temptation reader will thoroughly enjoy it!
